Sacred Heart University Rally Affirms Support for LGBTQ+ Community
Written by Sacred Heart University
Sacred Heart University affirmed its support for the LGBTQ+ community with an event, “As You Are,” following the Vatican’s recent decision that the Catholic Church will not bless same-sex unions.
The celebration of LGBTQ+ students, faculty and staff took place March 29 at SHU’s Fairfield campus, with music from local singer Erick Sanchez and remarks by University President John J. Petillo and a host of others.
While the Vatican’s decision on same-sex marriages disappointed the LGBTQ+ community and its allies, Sacred Heart leaders say the University remains steadfast in its support of LGBTQ+ individuals. “Sacred Heart is a community of faith, which will continue to welcome and respect each and every person. Driven by our Christian mission, we will continue to be a community of welcome and respect. Together, and only together, can we grow in the richness of God’s gifts and love,” said Petillo.
